Anybody Still Interested ??? Acura V8 will happen only in 2015

" Acura has made it clear it wants to be a top tier luxury brand but to do this it will need to change its lineup to suit the tastes of wealthy buyers, who are more likely to demand RWD cars with powerful engines.

The company’s CEO Takeo Fukui recently confirmed that a new V8 engine was in the works and that it could arrive within the next 18 months. However, an inside source at Acura has told Auto Observer that there is no V8 in the immediate product-development pipeline, and that the previous comments made by Fukui were very general and were more about the development of the engine rather than the actual launch."

I really dont know who is really excited.... may be Rusty, Aaron ..

Its just like Honda to jump on a trend a million years after it's popular..

That is 7-6 years from now, Acura's competitors will have better V8's out by then, probably a lot more fuel efficient as well. Acura might as well just drop the V8, RWD luxury car, they are too late to the party and this car may not be the right move for Honda Motor *** business plan. Unless Honda moves the Accord back down to the midsize car category, this RWD platform will not have a future.

Needforspeed007:The big question is this, is the Acura V8 worth the wait?

For me, if I want a good V8, id go with one of the domestic current offerings. Or go with what AaronM said and just go with a V6 since they have pleny of power in them now.

What can be said, I think Acura missed this by a longshot.

i would do what aaron said...it could be the best damn engine ever...by 2015 gas will be so insane i can't see it selling well....

this is like toyota jumping on the bandwagon with big suv's after no one wanted them anymore...
